The Bible is very, very clear on the issue of homosexuality, as well as abortion etc. There is not even any room for discussion on either of these issues. Anybody that believes otherwise, simply does not have the Spirit of God within them, Case Closed!!

"Exd 21:22 - If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart [from her], and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges [determine]."

That's pretty much all it says about abortion and even then it's not clear. It's also more to do with the woman and an assault on her person and it's dealt with by a fine and a punch in the face or similar.

Actually, the Bible is clear on very few things. It doesn't really mention abortion anywhere, and the six "clobber passages" that you homophobes like to cite don't refer to same-sex relationships between two consenting adults. If you actually read the proper translations, you see that the Bible seems to be silent on the issue of homosexuality itself.

How convenient that, if I were to argue with you, you'd say I don't have the Spirit of God within me, thus rendering everything I say faulty.

Unless I say that I DO have that Spirit thing, which you can't disprove in a way that can't also be used to disprove your claim that you do have that spirit, in which case I'm the ultimate authority on the bible.

The Bible is never, ever "very, very clear" on anything, let alone homosexuality and abortions.
What the "etc" is here, I have no idea. Shellfish-eating? Mixed-fiber-cloth-wearing? Working on the Sabbath? Witch-burnings? Coveting thy neighbor's house?

Does the Bible mention lesbianism at all? Chapter and verse, please.
Incest and rofie-rapes seem to be fine and dandy, according to the Bible; just look at Lot's daughters. (Genesis 19:30-38)

However, we're still equals in the eyes of the US law including our citizenship. You're no better than I, I'm no better than you. So you've got one on me spiritually. I don't really care. Enjoy it for all it's worth. But don't ever try to use it against me. You will fail.

"We don't have to debate about what we should think about homosexual activity. It’s written in the Bible."

Not exactly. Sodom and Gomorrah were both condemned before the scene where the mob tried to have sex with the angels, even so, it's a story that glorifies gang-rape that you've decided is appropriate to dictate morality. Also, "lying with a man as with a woman" can mean a variety of different things, the passage from Romans could refer to prostitution, amongst other things, and you do know the original text of 1Corinthians 6:9 does not include the word 'homosexual' right? 'Abusers of mankind' doesn't automatically mean a gay person.

Actually, the bible is pro-abortion. In Hosea 9:11-16, Hosea prays for God’s intervention.

“Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer. Give them, 0 Lord: what wilt thou give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. . .Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of their womb."

The character is praying to god to cause the unborn children to die.

Numbers 5:11-21 has a ritual intended to induce an abortion and rid a woman of another man's child.

"And if men struggle with each other and strike a woman with child so that she has a miscarriage, yet there is no further injury, he shall surely be fined as the woman's husband may demand of him; and he shall pay as the judges decide. "But if there is any further injury, then you shall appoint as a penalty life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,(NAS, Exodus 21:22-24)

Huh. That means if a woman is hit and miscarries, whoever hit her isn't in trouble for killing the fetus.

Well he is right. The bible is clear on abortion. If a man strikes down a woman with child and she dies it's eye for an eye. If he strikes her and only the fetus dies he pays her husband some cash.

As for the bible being clear on homosexuality. It's also very clear on eating shellfish, wearing mixed fabrics, working on the Sabbath day (that's one's repeated ad infinitum). The bible makes it clear there's no room for discussion on THOSE issues too.
